Johnson seemed totally lost to the Gabba, durable wicketless career test and probably deserved to be deleted. However, it is, on vocals, most likely launchers of Ricky Ponting to produce the kind of break spell sleeves that Peter Siddle took in Brisbane.
The mercurial Johnson, now 29, has a good record in Australia, too, having taken 84 wickets to just more than 27 tracks each of 20 tests. It is even the last Australian player to feature on the honours of bowling tips at the Adelaide Oval, something the hierarchy is not clearly consult before canning him.
Selector search patterns and they seem to have spotted a very one-Australian Johnson and the other who has himself revealed ashes tour last year England 18 months - ago is an Australian fast player who does not love bowling in English, something supported by its 41 average against them.
He almost admitted as much when he was put in front of the media today, after experiencing the eve only two other launchers of rhythm in the squad double injury triumph a reprieve.
"To move away from the publicity surrounding the series and enter in the nets and working on my game of bowling is probably the best option for me rather than to try to work of the game," Johnson said on the eve of the second review.
Asked if he felt particularly disappointed to be deposited in a series of ash, he gave one of these beloved sports psychologists answers that turn positive, negative, although that delivered in this case in a manner which suggests that he was not entirely convinced it.
"Every match I played for the Australia is a great moment for me, a series of ash, said the Johnson." I played for my country, and it is a big deal for me. It is very difficult to take but it is not the end of the world. I came back from stress fractures when I was younger, and I've withdrawn from Queensland squad. There were other launchers have been abandoned and return to it and hope that it will stronger.
You never know what to expect from players who are deleted. Some cry crying other contempt, while some just shuffle offshore forgotten that define responses to survey questions. Johnson seemed just as it did when opposite packaged media before the first test, shy, disillusionment and confused about exactly what had happened to him.
"For me to work things out is to go in the nets get back into gym, get my right mind and work really hard to return to the team and make a big effort when I have the chance," said Johnson."
Top-level sport is played as much between the ears on the ground and contradictions between Johnson and head coach Tim Nielsen on mental state of the former show all is fragile.
"We need to try and set of Mitchell and the spirit in a place that will allow him to do better at the international level," said Nielsen.
Mentally I think fine,"says Johnson. "I had some frustrating moments at the Gabba, but mentally, I felt fine for review.
According to Nielsen, they want him sort out his adopted home for third test in Perth, as he moved with his girlfriend Jessica Bratich, karate champion. Traditionally the lawn he saw the ball fly in but you need to operate controls. At this time, Johnson, who is an athlete who rather than the reverse, lack of control of direction or length due to its low arm, two cardinal sins in the Waca bowls.
Interestingly, Johnson remains with the squad, firstly to support and assist other launchers and, second, so it can work with Troy Cooley bowling coach.
There is a risk of keep on players who have been abandoned. Their understandable discouragement can disrupt the cloakroom, whereas interpersonal relationships, fixed at a level where a player is on the team must be adjusted when they are not.
Johnson is not disruptive personality and is half the problem. Quick launchers leading attacks tend to be extroverted who contemplate failure - think that Dennis Lillee and Ian Botham. Johnson, blessed, it is a sensitive soul who is struggling to be something the ogre, no amount of coaching change.
